Good mechanic shop in North Dallas/Plano Area

Help!! I have a project '86 camaro that I'm working on as a project car to eventually replace my daily driver. However, the engine in my daily driver is going out, and I'd rather spend the money to get the camaro fixed. I need a recommendation for a good shop to do the following:

-fix the horn (prev. owner screwed it up, can't fix it, can't pass inspection until its fixed)
-fix engine overheating problem (appears to be a blown head gasket, but not 100% sure)
-fix cooling system issues (it's melted the plastic coolant tank, boiled and bubbled over a few weeks ago)
-install emissions stuff (have 2 new cat converters, getting an emissions kit with headers, pipes, and mufflers from summit racing, just need it installed).

I was going to work on it slowly over the next few months and get it done, but I'm a college student who also works, so I have zero time until May. Thanks for any/all help!

I can do the work for you at my home. I'm in south fort worth so if you can get the car here and I'll fix it all for you for good price. Let me know if you're interested or not.

Hey Spifman

Check the private installers thread that is stickied at the top of this page--I'm pretty sure there are some Dallsa/Ft.Worth listings.
